The Circle Of Life . . . And Where I've Been

Well, I am finally back after neglecting this blog for a week now! This is the first painting I have done in quite a few weeks. I don't typically have that long of a dry spell. Not sure what is going on with me. I have not felt like myself lately. I feel lost on many levels.

Never in my life have I been so painfully aware of the passage of time. I feel stuck, I feel down, and I feel all mixed up. I have always been spiritual and intuitive. I feel like the energy all around me is chaotic, I mean out in the universe. Wonder if anyone else feels that way these days. When I my mind feels messed up my art shows it. As you can see here is messy journal page I did yesterday.

Despite the mess though the message is a good one I think . . .

Sharing over at Paint Party Friday today. Hopefully I will be back soon with new art but if not I have lots of silly pug pics to share!

I love how you put your mood into your art-great way to release it.Sometimes when I feel like this I try to go inward- kinda meditate if you will, in a quiet place outside if I can. Thanks fo sharing and happy PPF-keep on paintin!

it is always a conundrum to feel a bit lost and not to know why. there is a lot of chaos on our planet at the moment, so perhaps you are tuned into that. your page is wonderfully artful. i love the colors you chose as well. wishing you peace and a wonderful muse.

I think I know a little how you feel. I've had to work really hard the last two years to stay even a little bit centered and it seems that every little thing can throw me off and create great anxiety. I'm not sure what it is, but probably the general energy in our world is contributing to it. I'm thinking of you!! And your art is great. I like the messiness!! xoxo Silke

There's been a lot of weird energy in the air these days. I know that I feel it too. I was told to just help focus it to something positive. It seemed to help me get things calmed down around me. Happy PPF

you're not alone girl. I've been through several months of no art, which is so not like me. There are definitely strange energies out there, and even today heading home, I noticed how people were driving like they were just out of touch...hard to describe, but it was making me so annoyed and constantly on guard in case someone did something stupid.I think you just have to ride the wave, and try not to get swept under. Taking 10 minutes of silence and just sitting with yourself is a good idea.I still think you came up with a beautiful journal page, filled with your emotion.It's perfect just as it is.

I swear good energy will sweep down through the house and we are ALL creative and it's this amazing feeling. Lately I have to force myself to create. I noticed once school started again the world just seemed more frenetic...and selfish...very odd!!

On the other hand your artwork is amazing the depth, composition, color and words all fabulous...love this piece so much!! Hope your creative mojo and spiritual hope fill you up once again!!!

i don't think this is chaotic at all cathy. i love it! at first i thought it was alisa burkes, work, and yet your name is all over it. i dig it girl!and yes we all get like this sometimes. i like to do a lot of reading (esp. about art) and just go with the flow. it's your time to re-energize. i betcha' that you find new growth as you start back in! i have a good friend that reminds me constantly, that reflective people reflect and that it's such a good thing, that it can get ya' down a bit at times and not understand, and it's all more than okay...i love this friend, janet of mine. and i know you'll be back at it sooner or later with a freshness not expected. again, i love this piece! xo

Cathy, I've heard from my metaphysical connections that there are in fact chaotic energies happening in the universe. Interesting, when our lives really show some correlation. I'm sure we'll all be back on course before we know it. Your pieces here are quite engaging ... I wouldn't say chaotic. I, for one, would love to see silly Pug pics!! ;->

I can't stand feeling disconnected from my creativity, it feels like something vital is missing. Sometimes the well runs dry, and it takes some time to fill again. Hope you're back to peacefully painting again soon.

A very good message meaning to me that you are not alone, we are all in this together...out of the chaos comes understanding and clarity. The page is eye appealing, the spirals seem significant to me, to you too?

It is good you are focussing on your work...helps you and helps your art:) I like what you have produced - it is tumultuous but not dark:) Love the swirling brush strokes and all the white coming through.

I think everyone has those times, those moments or days when nothing makes "sense" and our confusion seems to fill our minds. We become focused on the passage of time, how quickly it goes where does it "leave" us. I think it's magnified for those who have dealt with life threatening illness...and that comes and goes. There are times when we are on a plateau and life is moving smoothly and out of nowhere one day we can wake up and say "is that all there is?" -- it doesn't mean it will last forever...I think it's a sign of growth and in order to achieve that growth we have to be still within that confusion so we can pick out and hold on to the parts that will take us to the next phase, the next level. Be still....♥
